Niepoorts ›Redoma Tinto 2007‹: ein Wein für die Zukunft mit 94/100 Punkten (07.03.2010)

In der Februarausgabe Nr. 187 von Robert Parkers »The Wine Advocate « finden sich 66 Verkostungsnotizen zu portugiesischen Weinen. Zu den dort von Mark Squires vorgestellten Weinen gehört auch Niepoorts ›Redoma Tinto 2007 ‹. Für den Roten aus der D.O.C. Douro gab es 94/100 Punkten. Im Original schreibt Squires folgendes:

„The 2007 Redoma Tinto, retasted from bottle in the USA for the first time here, is a Douro blend from old vines (60-120 years) aged for 22 months in French oak. I really liked this Redoma, which is showing even better now than when I had it in the Douro last year. It adds a layer or two of depth to the Vertente, sports better structure, and will likely age well, as these have a tradition of doing. At roughly half the price of the Batuta, it is deeper and more complex this year. For all that, it remains graceful and elegant, in Niepoort’s style. This won’t impress with size, weight or pure power, but its mid-palate depth is better than you think at first, its balance is impeccable and it is beautifully structured. It drank beautifully the next day, its structure more obvious than ever. This is what you expect from Niepoort at his best in a good vintage. This has a pretty good chance of becoming the best ever Redoma. There were 2,578 cases produced, of which 100 were imported. It is approachable now, but for best results, hold it a year or two. Drink now-2025.”
